. i am no expert on salukis, we have owned a couple over the years and seen a good few more run, but i am going to throw my opinion into the mix anyway!! i have always admired the saluki as an athlete and as a creature of beauty, and there "hunting intelligence" is incredible, but on the other hand i have personally yet to meet one which i liked as far as personality goes. i know this is a massive generalisation but i find them often antisocial or at least aloof, i find that when asked to do something they often obey with an irritating slowness, even a simple command like sit, and i find t

a busy but productive day by the sound of it. funny isnt it how they will sometimes just stand and watch their fallen comrades...i remember once dropping a pricket from a herd of 30 odd in a valley bottm, and the rest of the herd wheeled off, ran a full circle of about 100m diameter and stopped right by the twitching body, all just staring at it, so i dropped a doe and the herd circled again, and once more stopped while another doe fell before they finally disappeared!

sirius, be careful with comments like that or you may get called a retard like i was!!!

dont tell a pup off for pissing, like smacking a kid for doing it? if a pup pees, its your fault because you didnt get it outside at the right time, so dont listen to stupid advice like telling it off!! keep the pup in a crate when you are not with it. as soon as it wakes up, put it out, and wait until it pees, even if you have to wait an hour. watch the pup at all times, when it looks a bit agitated, nose to the floor and trotting back and forth, it needs to go out, and wait till it pees. learn to watch the pup and learn when it is going to go. dont leave it out of the crate unattended. b

if you catch the pup pissing in the house, pick it up and put it straight outside, maximus is right if you punish them then they think you dont want them to piss at all. if you have a pup pissing regular in the house its because you havent got your timing right, simple as that. what else is it supposed to do, cross its fecking legs? if you dont let it out at the right times then of course it will piss in the house!!!!!! and then you want to hit it for doing so!!!!!!!!!!

andy they should only be getting the hang of it if the groundwork has been put in properly. if the foundations aren't set properly then youare starting from scratch like a young pup.

listen boy, you've only had 3 lurchers in your life so who made you King trainer? if you got to smack a dog to house train it then you have serious issues with your training skills.. all my pups are house broke in a fortnight no problem, and i dont hit them to do it. hitting a pup to house train it just shows you lack the intelligence and imagination to deal with this sensibly.

looks the part for his age, be interesting to see a photo in 6 months. good luck with him

there are many little tricks of the trade that erreting dogs learn, but there is one basic lesson that is the foundation of everything else. the dog has to learn that if it waits patiently then it will get the chance to chase something. simple as that. so start the dog with easy burrows (not many holes, out in the open, and hopefully not a very long wait for a bolt) and it will learn the art of patience. quite how good it will end up depends on lots of different factors, but i think most dogs can learn the basic skill of ferreting

one born every minute. i reckon they deserve their £300 if they can find enough mugs to pay it!!!

http://forum-mordus-chasse.heavenforum.org/t458-orignal-a-perruque just been trawling the net and found this, so it seems it does occur in other species. roughly translated, it says its only the second in quebec in 5 years, and is rarer than an albino. the cause was a brain tumour affecting testosterone production, which stopped the beasts sexual appetite. as the animal had nothing else to do but eat, it was of an enormous size.the meat is edible and tender.

i've seen plenty of photos of perruque heads in roe but never in other deer species, do they occur in reds or fallow?

mine wont eat pheasant either. duck partridge and pigeon, but not pheasant!

Young Bitch Stolen Big Reward Offerd

very bad news, i hope the dog shows up. good luck. -
shot a fallow a few years ago which had lost a front foot at the ankle. the wound was completely healed and grown over with scar tissue and the beast was in fine condition. my guess was a snare injury. also, a friend shot a roe doe which had lost its whole scalp including the ears, again completely healed just smooth bare skin like a skull cap. reckon she must have been run across by some farm machinery (forager perhaps?) when she was a kid.

nice work putting those two safely to bed. one of then roads near here runs through a long stretch of forest containing stackloads of fallow and muntjac, and despite the fact that big boards are displayed with deer casualty numbers on, people still drive like loonies through this area. stop and pick up roadkill regularly for the dogs, but god only knows how many of the poor b*****ds crawl off the road to die slowly.

i like the black one too, but its hard enough to tell in the flesh, let alone from just a picture!!
-
to be honest i've never seen one work, but i have been told that they often throw pretty big, powerful dogs and their prey drive is almost through the roof. these two things combined can mean they are sometimes a bit too much dog for some people, but as i said its only what i've been told, not experienced myself

my very first deer is my most memorable. nothing particularly special about it, an old broken-teethed winter roe doe in poor condition, but the emotions for a young lad were undescribable. from spotting her and deciding that she would be the one, creeping up the leeward side of the hedgeline to get a good position, then putting the cross hairs on her with trembling hands, breathing deep and slow as my step dad just quietly put a warning hand on my shoulder to tell me to keep calm, and then, moment of moments, squeezing the trigger.........and seeing the beast almost in slow motion run for abou

i'm too lazy for a 69, prefer a 68 (give us a blow job and i'll owe you one!!!)

just gentle exercise on the lead, not loads of charging around. i would feed fresh meat AND bone else you are going to mess up the calcium/phosphorous balance which will cause more problems. add a calcium supplement BUT make sure there is vitamin D as well because the body can't absorb calcium unless it has vit D as well. good luck

first thing i asked him actually but he said "for feck's sake, it was hard enough to get a decent look, let alone a picture".
